Describe Azygous System
Importance in IVC Obstruction?
In the posterior mediastinum:
Azygous vein - Formed from R Lumbar + R Subcostal veins. Enters with aorta through aortic hiatus.
Essentially drains the posterior lumbar and thoracic wall
Hemiazygous vein - Formed from L Lumbar L subcostal vein. Enters through L crus of diaphragm. At T8 crosses vertebrae and drains into ayzous vein.
Accessory Hemiazygous Vein - Formed from L 4th-8th intercostal veins. Crosses at T7 to drain into Azygous Vein.
The ayzgous vein empties into the SVC by passing over the R Main Bronchus at the root of the lung.
IVC obstruction - There is collateralisation through the azygous system to the SVC through:
Lumbar Azygous Veins (between renal veins and azygous veins) which form communication between IVC and azygous vein (at its origin)

Heart Anterior


Heart Vasculature:
i) How many Pulmonary Veins are there?
ii) SVC Course?
iii) What is the coronary sulcus?
iv) what are the interventricular sulci?
v) What are the pericardial sinuses?
i) 2 Pairs of pulmonary veins - 1 inferior + 1 superior
all draining into L Atrium
ii) SVC formed by unification of both brachicephalic veins. The SVC travels laterally to the right mediastinum and then pierces the middle mediastinum before emptying into the right atrium.
iii) Groove running circumferentially around the heart ‘seperating’ the atria from the ventricles
iv) Running vertically down the surface of the anterior + posterior aspcts of heart
v) Sinuses are formed from folds of the pericardium.
oblique sinus - on posterior surface of heart
trasnverse sinus - Posterior to the ascending aorta + pulmonary traunk / Anterior to the SVC. Seperates the main arteries/veins
Heart anatomy atria :
i) Divisions of R Atrium
ii) what is the fossa ovalis a remnant of?
iii) gross description of L atrium
i) Divided by the crista terminalis (muscular ridge) into the sinus venarum (posterior to CT) and the atrium proper (anterior to CT) which has pectinate muscles. Coronory Sinus also opens into the right atrium
ii) Fossa Ovalis is a remnant of the foramen ovale in between the R and L atriums on the interatrial
septum.
iii) Posterior border of the heart. Superiorly is the l auricle. Two portions of the L atrium (interior) - posterior is the inflow portion receiving blood from PVs and the anterior is the outflow portion which is lined by pectinate muscles.
Heart Anatomy (Ventricles):
i) Different features of ventricle walls
ii) How many papillary muscles on R ventricle / L VEntricle
iii) What are the outflow tract of R and L Ventricle called
i) Trabeculae Carnae - are a series of muscular elevation predominantly in inflow tracts. Different types are -
Papillary Muscles - are attached to the tricuspid/mitral valve by Chordae Tendinae. They contract to prevent valve prolapse during ventricular systole
Ridges + Bridges (Important example of a bridge is the moderator band of R Ventricle)
Supraventricular Crest - Divides inflow and outflow portion of the R Ventricle
ii) 3 - on right as tricupid has 3 leaflets
2 - on left as mitral has 2 leaflets
iii) Conus Arteriosus - is the outflow tract of the R Ventricle where as the L Vetnricle outflow tract is called the aortic vestibule. Both develop from the bulbus cordis.
Cardiac Conducting System
i) Where is SA node
ii) What is the PR interval caused by?
iii) What happens beyond the AV node? Describe the components
iv) Where might you find pacemaker leads?
i) Sinoatrial Node is in the wall of right atrium near the SVC
ii) PR interval is caused by delayed conduction in the atrioventricular node situated in the atrioventricular septum near the coronary sinus
iii) Immediately after the AV node is the bundle of his within the interventricular septum. This then branches into the Right and Left Bundle.
Right Bundle - Only 1 Fascilce
Left Bundle - Anterior and Posterior fasicle.
The bundles then continue to the apex of the heart from where purkinje fibers begin to extend into the subendocardium disseminating action potential to myocardium.
iv)
Right ventricle lead - practically all devices
Right atrial lead - dual chamber devices
Coronary Sinus lead - Biventricular devices
Pericardium

Serous Pericardium - Seperated into -
Parietal Pericardium
Visceral Pericarium - Also known as the epicardium
ii) Innervated by the phrenic nerve
Coronary Vasculature
i) Describe the coronary arteries
i) Aortic Sinuses are behind the aortic valve leaflets and blood enters this in diastole.
Aortic Sinuses go on to form the:
Left Coronary Artery + Right Coronary Artery
Left coronary artery gives three branches(or four):
Left Anterior Descending (Anterior Inteventricular groove. AKA Anterior Interventricular Artery)
Left Circumflex ARtery (In the coronary sulcus. Gives rise to the L Marginal Artery)
(rarely the posterior interventricular artery)
Right Coronary artery (runs in the coronary sulcus) gives two branches (or one):
Right Marginal Artery
Posterior Interventricular Artery (Post. IV Groove)
ii) Veins eventually drain into the coronary sinus (located posteriorly on the coronary sulcus which in turn drains into the R atrium )
Anterior Veins are the :
Great Cardiac Vein - In anterior interventricular groove
Small Cardiac Vein - Right Sided
Posterior vein is the :
Middle Cardiac Vein
Left Marginal Vein
Left posterior ventricular vein

Describe lower limb blood supply
Femoral artery - Continuation of external iliac artery becoming the femoral artery as it passes beneath the inguinal ligament to enter the femoral triangle. Beyond the femoral triangle it descends in the adductor canal.
Profunda femoris artery is a posterolateral branch of the femoral artery. In turn it gives off 3 main branches - Med and lat fem circumflex arteries and then some perforating muscular branches.
Obturator artery - arises from internal iliac artery and enters medial thigh through the obturator foramen. Supplies medial thigh compartment / deep gluteal muscles
Popliteal artery (discussed further below) - gives off 3 medial and 2 lateral genicular arteries
Lower Leg
Superficial femoral artery becomes Popliteal artery as it exits the adductor hiatus and enters popliteal fossa.
Just inferior to the popliteal fossa it bifurcates:
Anterior Tibial Artery - Becomes the dorsalis pedis artery in the foot (passes anteriorly beneath extensor retinaculum)
Tibioperoneal trunk -which then birfucates into the: posterior tibial artery passing posterior to medial malleolus

What is the arcuate line?
The arcuate line is a:
Horizontal line 1/2 been umbilicus and the pubic crest.
Demarcates the end of the posterior rectus sheath + where the inferior epigastric vessels perforate the rectus abdominus
Above the arcuate line:
Anterior Rectus Sheath - External oblique aponeruosis + Anteria lamina of internal oblique aponeurosis
Posterior Recuts Sheath - Posterior lamina of internal oblique aponeurosis + tranverses abdominus aponeuoriss
Below the arcutate line :
Anterior REctus sheath - combination of EOA, IOA + TAA
Behind this the rectus abdominus is in direct contact with the transversalis fascia
Innervation:
i) Of the colon
ii) Of the small intestine
i) Midgut Derived Structures:
Superior Mesenteric Plexus - Approximates well to the SMA –> axxompanying it into the mesentery where it divides to give secondary plexi.
It is a continuation of the coeliac plexus (Receives an extra branch from the R Vagus)
Hindgut derived Structures:
Inferior Mesenteric Plexus :
PNS - Pelvic Splanchnic Nerves
SNS - Lumbar Splanchnic Nerves
ii) Coeliac plexus - From the greater + lesser splanchnic nerves and anterior and posterior vagal trunks
—> gives off hepatic, pancreatic, splenic, gastric, suprarenal plexi, renal, gonadal and superior mesenteric plexus.
Tributaries to the IVC
Distal -> Proximal
L5 - Two CIV Join
L5- Median Sacral Vein
L5-L3 - Lumbar Veins
L3 - Right Gonadal Vein
L2 - Renal Veins
L2/L1 - Right Suprarenal Vein
T12 - Inferior Phrenic, Left/Middle/Right Hepatic Veins
Adrenal Gland Blood Supply
Arterial:
Superior - Inferior Phrenic
Middle - Abdominal Aorta
Inferior - Renal Artery
Venous:
Left Adrenal Vein –> Renal Vein –> IVC
Right Adrenal Vein —> IVC
Sympathetic Trunk:
i) Extent
ii) How does it communicate with spinal nerves?
i) Extends from T1-L2
ii) Communicates with spinal neves through rami communicantes
Duodenum:
i) What is behind first part
ii) What is behind third part
iii) What is in front of third part?
iv) Behind fourth Part?
i) Behind 1st/2nd Part - Gastroduodenal Artery
ii) Behind 3rd Part - Aorta / IVC
iii) Anterior to third part - SMA / SMV
iv) Behind Fourth Part- Left Renal vein
i) Where do you find diploic veins?
ii) Arterial supply to temporalis muscle?
iii)
i) Diploic veins are found in between the inner and outer layer of cranial bones and drain into the various intracranial sinuses
ii) Deep temporal artery - Branch of maxillary artery
i) Thoracic Duct Drains into
ii) Azygos Vein drains into
i) Thoracic Duct Drains into the left subclavian vein (Croses behind the oesophagus from right to left at the vertebral level T4)
Right Thoracic Duct/ Subclavian Duct/ Jugular Duct all drain into the Right subclavian vein
ii) Azyguos Vein Drains into the Superior Vena Cava
Small Cardiac Vein Runs with..
Middle cardiac Vein runs with ..
Great Cardiac Vein runs with ….
Small Cardiac Vein - Right Coronary Artery
Middle Cardiac Vein - Posterior Interventricular Artery
Great cardiac vein - Anterior Interventricular Artery
Hip:
1) Origin of vastus muscles?
2) Origin / Insertion of short external rotators?
1) Vastus Muscles (Med, Intermedialis, Lat) all originate from the
intertrochanteric Line
Lat- Superiorly
Medialis - Inferiorly
Interm - In between
2) OSIQ
Oburator Internus
Superior Gemellus
Inferior GEmellus
Quadratus Femoris
all originate from the Ischial Tuberosity in that order
and insert onto the greater trochanter
What is meant by the extensor expansion?
The Extensor Digitorum Tendons:
- Flatten as they reach the metacarpophalangeal joints forming a hood
and then
Medial Band attaches to the middle phalanx
Two Lateral Bands attach to the distal phalanx
Function - compound tendinous attachment for the extensor digitiorum, lumbricals and interossei muscles
What is a GIST?
Malignant potential?
How is TK Involved?
A tumour of mesenchymal origin
- arising from smooth muscle pacemaker cells of kajal
Mutations in the KIT gene
They have a low malignant potential compared to other GI tumours
KIT - encodes a Tyrosine Kinase like transmembranous receptor:
- Leads to phosphorylation of ADP
–> In turn leading to various effects acting like and on/off switch —> Enzyme changes, Cellular proliferation signalling.
Pectoralis Major Components + Functions

Clavicular - Flexion
Sternum - Adduction
Also accessory muscle of inspiration
Relations of pancreas
Superior - Splenic ARtery
Inferior - Third part of duodenum, DJ Flexure
Anterior - Stomach, Gastro duodenal artery (to head)
Posterior to body - SMA, AOrta,
Posterior to neck - IVC SMV
